They won't say anything back to ED because they are afraid of what else he will say. I am a Christian and I like Dick the best!!!! He is mean and harsh. But, I can overlook him acting like that since he is not a Christian. However, those who say they are Christians I can't overlook their behavior. As a Christian you aren't supposed too overlook another Christians behavior. You are to confront them about it and pray for them to repent.
